"The #Nakba is a structure, not an event. Its authors openly admit its aims" explains Dr. #ArdiImseis, professor of #InternationalLaw, Queen's University, Canada
"Nakba and Shoah, the Hebrew word for Holocaust, mean the same thing: catastrophe. I reject the premise that one people’s salvation must come at another’s destruction. I am committed to creating a world where this does not happen — and this cannot be done from within the Biden administration.”

homes in contravention of international law.
